Performance:
Kneading dough:
Good for large amounts. Less for smaller amounts . Noisier than the HD 500.
Great for all dough amounts. Quietest of all.
Does the kneading job good but motor seems to have a hard time.
Has plenty of power to handle the dough, but it is noisy and not so stable.
Does a good job. Stable.
